Luther, Peaky Blinders, Sherlock, The Fall?
Peaky Blinders yes.... The period drama stuff can only be done by the British..... Such as The Tudor's, amazing.
The rest.... Meh, not for me at all!

Netlfix and HBO are the only real TV channels worth a damn. Maybe AMC.
I hate the way TV is now in some cases.
The way ratings have become a death sentence after the pilot.
I think it started with Lost, channels saw that cashcow and created a similar formula for every show since.
It drives me nuts that a show just gets good but because it's first few episodes were poor it's cancelled before the end of the 1st season, or because it doesnt rate well on the first episode it gets moved to a grave yard shift and loses even more fans. Another side effect has been that some channels push more reality rush or unrealistic stupid stuff for peopel to binge. Look at the Scifi channel and how it's turned to crap. MTV turned into RealityTV. History channel showing Ancient Aliens etc. It breeds rubbish like Storage Wars and Pawn Shop which are so fake.
Like others have said really normal TV is mostly bull, apart from the odd documentaries and shows.
Definitely all about the series hype now
TV quality plateaued with the sopranos and almost met by Breaking Bad.
The TV now is great, but mainly in variety rather than quality and we've been here for about 5 years.
I have managed to watch the first two online but it cropped out half of the image so i might jut buy the box set.
Why hasn't it aged well? i thought the start was good (he loves his ducks doesn't he!). I need to see if it truely is better than The Wire.
Couldn't get into GoT, may give it another go but for now I'm reading the books.
I no longer pay for a TV licence now Netflix 4od etc stream anytime worth watching.
